Summary:
Hige takes Daichi on a B rank mission, as promised, bringing a bit of backup too. Let’s see if Daichi can handle what he wanted.
Poster's note: foul language filtered in obvious places.
"A Fiery Student"
Land of Fire
Well, Daichi had wanted to go on a B rank mission, and Hige had promised it to him in order to get the Student to help out with training some of the newer Students. Since Daichi was fairly well versed in his own Academy skills it only made sense to have him help the younger ones. Too bad he'd had to bribe him! Well, not really, but to make him a little happier and more helpful he had offered him what appeared to be his greatest wish. That left Hige going through all the available B ranks to find the least likely to get a Student dead…and he finally found one. But, just to be safe, he assigned Kurome to help him with the mission. It might end up being overkill, but better safe than sorry.
So early one morning Hige and Konsho are prepared and waiting at the front gates. Hige's going through a small back pack as he waits for the arrival of the other two, making sure he has everything he needs when he comes across something strange. "I am /not/ carrying all these treats for you Konsho. This is a mission, not a joy ride!" The pup looks sad and poutty at Hige's words, doing his best to give him a cute puppy dog look…but Hige is immune!
A soft chuckle comes from the trees at the antics of the pair, and Kurome is there, landing near the gates. "Hige-kun. Konsho-kun. Is there a reason you were so desperate to get the student on this mission?" she wonders with a slight tilt of her head. She just knows the team and the basics of the mission, really. Not so much the details… Her eyes are black for the time being, as she tends not to use her Sharingan… "Mmm… Also, I would like your assistance at some point… If you don't mind." She frowns briefly before turning to look over the village entrance in search of Daichi. She doesn't remember meeting the Satonezu. "Is he that promising a student?" She proceeds to ask.
Daichi wakes up early the day he was supposed to meet Hige. Getting ready he checks again and again making sure he isn't forgetting any of his few ninja tools. He is prepared for this mission no matter what it is. Knowing Hige probably wouldn't pick a really dangerous mission no matter how good he thinks Daichi is keeps Daichi calm. He charges out of his house and comes across Hige and Kurome. "Hey Hige and Konsho and good morning." Looking over at Kurome he sticks his hand out to shake. "Hello and good morning. You coming on the mission to?" He looks at his ninja tools one last time to make sure he has them.
"It's not happening," Hige says again to Konsho with a frown. "It's a mission, not a picnic." Hige states flat before tossing the treats to the guards inside the gate. "Hold onto that for me please." With that done Hige puts the back on his back and offers a nod of greeting to Kurome. "Hey Kurome. Uh, it was a sort of bribe actually. It started at candy and somehow ended up as letting him come on a higher ranking mission." Hige sniffs the air a bit before offering a fang toothed grin, "Oh I don't know that he's promising to be anything more than a pain in the a- Oh hey there Daichi!" The last part comes out innocently. He'd known the boy was coming of course, which is why he said all of that. "Daichi, Kurome. Kurome, Daichi. Daichi will be coming along to OBSERVE on this mission.
"Hopefully we won't run into any trouble. We'll be going to investigate on a group of possible rogue shinobi a few hours out. They might be planning something bad so we're going to investigate and try to do a little spying. Questions?"
RP: Hige transforms into KONSHO.
COMBAT: Hige focuses 4444 stamina to turn it into 5000 usable chakra!
COMBAT: Kurome focuses 6006 stamina to turn it into 8000 usable chakra!
"None here," Kurome says, smiling a bit. She wasn't able to comment on the whole situation unless she wanted Daichi overhearing, so she doesn't. "Uchiha Kurome. It's nice to meet you, Daichi-kun. I look forward to working with you." She glances to Hige. "Just lead the way, Hige-kun."
Daichi looks at Kurome with a smile on his face. "I look forward to working with you as well. Even if I will mostly be in the background." He says that last part while glaring at Hige. "Hige I don't really have any questions either. I am ready to leave whenever." He glances at the sky while stretching.
Hige looks between the other two before he nods, cinching the straps of his backpack to make sure it's in place. "Alright then, let's get a move on. Daichi, hop on Konsho's back for the trip. We'll be going fast so hang on tight alright?" Hige would wait until Daichi was atop Konsho before he turned and hopped up to the trees, then starts moving at a fast clip as he leads the way towards where there mission will begin. Konsho will take the middle with Daichi, leaving Kurome to bring up the rear guard.

Kurome takes position in the rear, keeping an eye out for… Well, anything! Her eyes turn from black to a pale red to indicate that she's using the Sharingan, and only three Tomoe are what remains of the blackness. Shekeeps up with the pace, rather speedy! Not bad for a ninjutsu/Genjutsu user, no?
RPCOMBAT: Daichi defends against with a PERCEPTION…11
Daichi glares at Hige, but doesn't argue and gets on Konsho. He watches the area around him while there moving, but Konsho is so quick he doens't have time to see anything. He decides that if anything is out here the others would find it. He just stares straight ahead at Hige watching for any signs that he spots anything.
Nothing exciting would be found as they travel and it's only as they got nearer to the point that Hige would call them to a halt, motioning with a hand stay low as he lands on a thick branch and crouches next to the trunk. "I smell them…they have a few guards it seems. Alright Daichi, this is where you get off. Kurome, please stay here and watch Daichi and take care of any guards that happen by. Try and make it look like some bandits caught them or something if possible. We want to try and avoid letting them know we were here."

Kurome nods quietly to Hige as she slows in her tracks. "Daichi-kun, how about we take up residence in one of the trees," she suggests quietly. The woman would make her way up a tree via tree walking for a better view of the area. If Daichi needed assistance, she would just drag him along with her! So nice. Her eyes have turned from the pale red to a bright red as she draws on the full power of her Sharingan.
RPCOMBAT: Daichi defends against with a PERCEPTION…12
Daichi nods when she suggests hiding in a tree. He gets dragged up the tree, and thinks to himself that he really needs to learn tree walking. When they get up the tree he notices the Sharingan in her eyes for the first time. Seeing her look around the area pushes him to as well since he has nothing better to do. He stares off into the distance probably noticing nothing.
Hige and Konsho slip to the ground and start making their way towards the assumed camp, disappearing from the view of Daichi and Kurome after mere moments as they go, blending into the foliage on the forest floor. While they go to actually work on the mission it leaves Kurome and Daichi to stay alert and watchful for anything that might make it's presence known. And then Kurome would see them. A pair of dirty, rugged looking rogue shinobi moving silently and slowly through the trees as they go about their patrol…

Kurome sees the two men sneaking around and motions to the pair. Make sure Daichi sees them! "We need to be quick…" she whispers to the boy. "I'll strike them so they can't move. Then you try and take care of them. Make it look like a bandit did such." Once the plan is whispered in full, the woman would hop off the tree branch and suddenly appear in front of the two before striking at their chests directly in a way that would make it very difficult to move…
Daichi looks at the two rogue shinobi on the ground, and stares as she jumps down. He follows her down, and obviously hesitates for a short moment looking between the bandits and her before pulling out a kunai. He jumps over to them quickly stabbing at them, and aims particuarly at ones neck before stabbing the other one twice in slightly different places to make it seem inaccurate. Him believing bandits would try to stab there, but not be skilled enough to be completely accurate…or not care enough.

Did I mention that these were rogue shinobi? Pretty sure…yep! They aren't so easily fooled and caught off guard as one might believe something like bandits to be. These aren't bandits. They are full fledged shinobi. And now they are two very taught off full fledged shinobi. Tiny leaves a fire clone to take blows before he appears in a tree branch and unleashes fireballs down on the two. The other wind steps away easily before sending cutting edges of wind towards the two Konoha shinobi.

Kurome is able to avoid the two attacks aimed at her, then she pretty much grabs Daichi with little warning to make sure he stays safe. The red of her Sharingan flashes a bit as she examines the two targets. "Tsk… And here I thought to go easy on you…" she murmurs, trying to catch their eyes so she can cast her Genjutsu on them. One would feel as if he were getting strangled while the other would watch Kurome send a massive fireball in his direction. "Daichi-kun, stay close to me for the time being," Kurome suggests, thinking it is probably a terrible idea to send him running off with two former shinobi hanging around…

Daichi starts to try to dodge, but Kurome was much quicker grabbing him and pulling him to safety. He looks up at her when she tells him to stay close. "Well I wasn't planning on running off. I will be right here." He glances at the other two and pulls out a few kunai, but just hold them in his hands for now. He waits to see what happens next.
The shinobi are shinobi, but many have a weakness and apparently these two are not fans of genjutsu. In their minds the two die by various methods, the one seeing himself strangled while the other gets burned to a crisp by a fireball. In reality they freeze in place, their muscles logged rigidly and their eyes unfocused while they attempt to escape the confines of their minds. At least there wasn't too much noise made and, so far, it doesn't seem like any backup is coming.
Once Kurome sees the pair have fallen to the genjutsu, the woman nudges Daichi. "Run," is all she says before the woman focuses her chakra. Kurome makes a handseal and for now, both of them would end up being crispied to a crispy crisp. Hopefully they all just can disappear so that Daichi can flee, and then Kurome would be running right behind him to make sure that he isn't unprotected.

Daichi gets nudged in the other direction, and when he is told to run he does exactly that. He keeps an eye on the area in front of him hoping not to trip. Wondering if anyone else could be out here he does keep an eye out. His mind flashes back to the two shinobi when they attacked, and he glances back to make sure Kurome is still behind him.
The fire comes from the Uchiha and the first wave burns both of the shinobi below. The firey pain is enough to help free Tiny however and he jumps away just in time to avoid the other flames, while Not Tiny is doomed to a fiery death in silence. However, Tiny being free is no good as he makes a hand seal and shoots a firebolt into the sky. Likely to warn the rest of his group. "You're not getting away you little shits!" He yell-growls as he prepares another jutsu while still in the air. When he finishes the last seal he puts his palm towards Kurome and in effect Daichi. A large fireball appears, something that Kurome might recognize, before barrelling down on the two at a speed to fast to simply outrun.

Kurome raises a brow at the huge fireball that's fast-approaching, then she just… drags Daichi out of the way in the process of avoiding the fire. "Hmm… Well, that's interesting," she comments, making a handseal. The man would find his world literally upside-down and topsy-turvy for a bit once she is able to make eye-contact with him. "Daichi-kun, there might be a bit more trouble. I didn't think he would escape his previous binds…"

Daichi noticed the fireball coming in his direction, but Kurome was also fast approaching. She got to him and easily pulled him to the side. "Yeah he alerted more I think, but Hige probably saw as well. If not he could probably figure it out another way." He tries to keep an eye on the enemy shinobi while speaking. "What should we do?"
The poor ronobi falls victim to the genjutsu or Kurome right as he'd left a branch and was heading towards another. Since the genjutsu grabs hold, however, he misses the branch and smacks into a tree before falling to the ground. He's dazed /and/ still under the genjutsu. How's about that! Unfortunately he had gotten off some warning of some kind and four more ronobi arrive. One throws a number of kunai at the shinobi while another unleases more fire! Yay fire!

Dang stupid Ronobi! Kurome isn't exactly thrilled to see them, especially when they just start attacking her and Daichi. The woman is gone and avoiding the incoming attacks like the plague, dragging Daichi along with her! Poor student… The Uchiha clan head leaves Daichi where he is, then, turning with handseals already forming. False Death Technique! The four Ronobi shall hopefully fall to the genjutsu, seeing various deaths. The more horrible kinds of death, even.

Daichi continues getting dragged around, and the feeling of helplessness continues to grow. He watched enough to figure out she has been putting them in genjutsu. He grabs out a few kunai, and hoping most of them are under genjutsu throws a few kunai in their directions. He readies more kunai if he can to try and show confidence even if he can't back it up with actions.

These ronobi are much better prepared than the two guards had been. Not surprising, considering they'd been alerted. A variety of them easily escape the genjutsu with whatever form of defense they have, leaving only one to fall to it in the end. This one also takes a kunai in the chest but he doesn't seem to notice as he sees his death anyways. Just…not from that little bitty kunai. The other kunai are avoided easily as more attacks are unleashed on the pair. "Should've stayed away! Now you can die!" Two of the ronobi make hand seals to prepare their attack and Kurome would see what was going on. One wind user, one fire user. In the end it's another great fireball, but even greated and much faster thanks to the underlying wind technique that helps it!
Hige's a little behind on things, mostly because when the ronobi had gone to leave the camp to chase after other two it had given he and Konsho a chance to view the papers they'd been reviewing. After, uh, 'borrowing' a few of the more important ones they'd given chase. It's only now, however, that they arrive after the four. "Hey, dumbasses. Pick on someone your own size!" Which is funny since none of these ronobi are shorter than five foot like a certain Jounin. *cough*. Regardless Hige starts spinning in the air, head over heels instead of sideways, and turns into a sawblade. Konsho does the same and together they come down towards the four remaining ronobi.

Kurome would try to grab Daichi, but he happens to be in a very very bad place. Namely: somehow in front of her and she can't reach him without getting badly burnt herself. The woman instead tries to combat some of the fire by exhaling a burst of flame that would both send her backwards /and/ hopefully interrupt the flames. then again, it could just make the incoming onslaught worse than it already is…. -.-

Daichi just stares for a little to long as a giant ball of fire comes right at him. He gets caught by the fire, and gets sent backwards landing in the grass. The fire burns him pretty badly as he sits in the grass not moving at first. When he gets the ability to move he just lies there anyways knowing that if he got up it would probably hinder the others more then anything. He just lays there ready to move if he gets attacked, but trys to play it off as if he is out of it.

It seems that the Inuzuka duo manage to do some damage as two of the ronobi fail to move out of the way in time. The saw blade Inuzuka come down and smash the other two into the ground however, sending blood and body parts flying everywhere. By the time they finish, which is really only seconds, there's not much left of the two ronobi but blood and guts and goop. Hige remains on all fours with Konsho next to him, the boy's feral eyes even more so than usual and seeming to lack much of any humanity at all while his bared teeth drip with blood. Konsho's hackles are raised and the usually happy pup looks very deadly right now. "Kurome," Hige growls, his voice guttural and seemingly a sound impossible for a human to make. "Get Daichi and go. I'll finish this."
The two surviving members of course had to be Firey and Airy and, after seeing their friends get shredded, they immediately go on the attack, shooting two of those huge fireballs and Hige and Konsho - but failing miserably as the two seem to almost nonchalantly avoid them. "You hurt my friends and were making plans to attack an innocent village. I'll enjoy killing you both." This time, when Hige and Konsho come down in a sideways spin there is lightning coming off of them at the same time, the power and energy coming from them nearly oppressive.

RP: Kurome makes a Spd roll and got 14.
Kurome nods to Hige and grabs Daichi, moving a bit slowly to make sure she doesn't get in Hige's way. Then Daichi is carried fireman style across her back while she gets the heck out of here! The Sharingan allow her to travel at top speed while avoiding any tree branches, which is nice because she'd rather not be about to die just because she tripped over a stupid tree root or something silly like that. That would be lame! >:|
Daichi feels himself get picked off the ground, and opens his eyes to see Kurome. He looks past her to see Hige in a frenzy attacking the ronobi who were there. He had heard almost everything he had said while the last bit was muffled. "I see the difference between being a real shinobi, and just a shinobi in training now. I guess I really do have a lot more to learn." He frowns as the distance between the two groups continues to grow.
One down, one to go. The lightning techniques creates a small crater in the ground where there used to be a person and lightning flickers off of the Inuzuka pair as they both turn eyes to the last survivor at the same time. The man, having seen the rest of his friends genjutsu'd into trees, stabbed with kunai from kids, and shredded by…other kids…decides that fleeing might be the best bet. He turns to run and Hige and Konsho give chase. He manages to avoid their attack and skip ahead quickly. The two draw up, watching the man flee and deciding without really looking at each other that their mission was already only a partial success, and the health of the others was more important. They take off running, Hige remaining on four legs as they chase down Kurome and Daichi. "Kurome! Daichi! Are you alright?" he calls once they get close, Hige returning to two legs for the last little bit. The teen is covered in blood from head to toe, most of his face and hair red as well. Blood still drips from his claws but it looks like he cleared some from his fangs with a sleeve…which really only smeared it some. "Daichi, tutor…I knew this was a bad idea. Ojii's gonna kill me."
Kurome's eyes are still quite red! And she can see Hige very very clearly… Which may not be the best at the moment. "He's fine… alive, but badly hurt. We need to get to a hospital." The woman glances back over her shoulder to nod to Daichi. "Of course. You're a student. When you're a genin, you still won't be able to touch these missions with a thirty-nine and a half foot pole. When you're a Chuunin, you'll likely have a Jounin overseeing you. Now that Hige-kun's shown you a very valuable lesson, I hope you'll put time into your own studies." And with that mini-lecture, the Clan Head looks to Hige. "Shall we, Hige-kun? I don't think keeping Daichi-kun out this long will make him any better. Unless you know some first aid to keep him together while we travel."
Daichi looks at Hige drenched in blood. He doesn't look away, but it is obvious that he seems put off. "Did they know I was coming out here? If not just tell them I followed you, and you didn't notice me until it was to late. Well maybe they won't believe that you being who you are." He winces as he tries to get into a more comfortable position. "You don't have to tell me that Kurome. I know full well what happened, and I learned enough without being lectured." He pauses then looks at Kurome. "Sorry for being rude. Just I noticed how obvious it was that I made this harder for you."
Hige smirks faintly at Daichi thought the teens normal humor is much subdued. "I told them you were coming, and they weren't happy. I'm going to hear about it too now. But a deal was a deal, so I brought you out." He looks to Kurome as she gives a mini lecture and he gives a muted chuckle. "Yeah, I think he learned a good lesson. And don't worry Daichi, you might've made it more difficult for Kurome, but I think she might've actually enjoyed the challenge." A little of his humor sparks to life before looks to the blood soaked Konsho, then Kurome. "Start on back. We'll go get cleaned up at the lake we passed and meet back up with you."
And so they would. When the pair met back up with Kurome and Daichi Hige's clothes would be wet but the dark blue hid any of the minor blood stains well enough. Hige'd have Daichi ride on Konsho after that and he'd walk beside them for a time, wrapping some of the burns with bandages and burn creme to help with the pain until they got back to the village…

Kurome sighs softly, but allows herself to relax. Her Sharingan fades away to reveal the black eyes that she was named for, and the woman continues carrying Daichi until Hige comes back and has the boy ride on Konsho. "I'm not sure if enjoyed is the right word. But it was a good challenge. I need to get stronger, though." She frowns briefly, then shakes her head a bit as she walks alongside the others, making idle conversation on the way back.
Daichi relaxes a little bit as the burn creme and bandages is put on his wounds. "Yeah you will need to get stronger Kurome. Won't be long until I am caught up with you." He smirks at Kurome before continuing the conversation. "I have a lot more work to do, but I will be training every day!" He winces as he chuckles slightly. "Okay maybe I can take a break before I get back to training." For the rest of the ride he seems in a better mood. Whether it is because he is better, or is just trying to make the others think he his isn't obvious.
